Hi Yogesh,
Hi,
sorry to reply after the message closure.
Maybe you will read it.
SD_CUSTOMER_MAINTAIN_ALL is used in standard during the maintenance of a consumer using the standard customer master data transaction XD01 & XD02.
It is not intended to be used out of the transaction and in no case it should be used out of its original context. Due to the specificity of the function module, out of the original context we may face limitations and data inconsistencies.
For the maintenance of customers, there is NO BAPI and NO direct function module.
There are some functions modules like the one above where the name is looking nice. But these should not be used.
BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1 is part of them. This one uses SD_CUSTOMER_MAINTAIN_ALL, so the above remark is still valid. Moreover, this BAPI is to be used only from process SAP Product Catalog. Out of it and due to its limitation, a lot of troubles are expected.
Sorry.
Below ECC 2005 (6.00), the only solution was batch input and DEBMAS idocs. See [note 384462|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/384462]
Starting with ECC 2005 (6.00) and above: a synchronisation tool has been introduce. See class CMD_EI_API and VMD_EI_API
Hope this helps.

Error during create CR for MDGC "Enter a relevant role for creation of customer master data"

Hello Experts,
I am unable to create a Customer CR in 'MDG 6.1 Customer UI' , the UI throws an error saying "Enter a relevant role for creation of customer master data".It looks like it is expecting me to mention the BP role ( like FLCU01 Customer or FLCU00 FI Customer ) , but I don't see that BP role section in the Customer UI to mention .
While creating the vendor CR , I am able to enter the BP role ( like FLVN01 vendor or FLVN00 FI Vendor ) in the UI BP Role section.
Following are the UI's for Customer and Vendor
Customers BS_OVP_BP: BS_OVP_CU > OVP: BS_CU_OVP - I do not see BP role section here.
Vendors BS_OVP_BP: BS_OVP_SP > OVP: BS_SP_OVP - This is working fine , I see BP role section here.
Please advice what I am missing here , what should I do for the successful CR creation . Should I change the UI for Customers or do I need to do anything in CVI configuration.
Thanks,

Hi Abdullah,
You were right in the first place the UIBB is missing , the UIBB 'Role' was present in the 'Search Customer' page but not available in the 'Create Customer CR' page , so I created the 'Role' UIBB again and was able to create the CR now . Not sure how it got deleted in the first place , is there any options where we reset the UI screen to the default initial configuration
But after approving the CR , only the Business Partner BP is getting created and the Customer is not getting created . Not sure what might be the issue now. Is there any config that tells to automatically create customer when BP is created. I was able to create Vendor using the create Vendor CR before.
Thanks

Problem in creation of Customer Master

Hi gurus,
I am facing problem in creation of customer master.
I have created a account group zz01 copying from 0001.which has internal no. assignement for the customer.
Now i am trying to create a customer master, at partner functions level under sales area data... the system is asking for the no. for each partner functions.. when i tried to manually enter, the system is not taking any number nor it is letting me save the data.
Please help me out in acertaining, what could be the issue.
regards
Gupta
[email protected]

its due to the number ranges that is specified in the partner determination ... chech what is the number range assigned in the parner determination ,,, so once u check that u have to manually enter the number between that range only .. this should solve ur problem...
path to check the number range is as below :
spro-img-logistic generalbusiness partner-customers---define account groups and field selection ---
at this point click position button at the bottom and give ur account group .. select ur account group and click detail button .. now inside that u can see the specified number range .. dafault is 08 ( means u can specify between 400000 to 499999)..
and some times u may not have defined number range... check urs and create accordingly ... this should solve ur problem...
rewards if solved ..
thank you

3) Incoming Payment.
4) vendor master or customer master.
If any body have these above document code please share it or

Thanks in advance.

These are the typical requirements that would mostly cause big problems if they try to run B1 in parallel to any 3rd party applications. Especially if the other application would be in leading role. That defeats the concept of ERP.
However, it is still possible to make it work initially. You just need to find all required information from the other application new records export. Then use DI API to update B1.

Error in creation of customer master...

Dear SAP masters,
While creating customer master I am getting this error "Field KNVK-NAME1 does not exist in field status tables (TMOD*)".How can I resolve this?

Hi,
What are SAP Notes?
SAP Notes give you instructions on how to remove known errors from SAP Systems. They include a description of the symptoms, the cause of the error, and the SAP Release and Support Package level in which the error occurs. SAP Notes that contain correction instructions can be implemented using Note Assistant.
You need to log on to www.service.sap.com. This would ask for a S-User ID and Password. Check with your System Administrator for the same.
Once logged on, go to the link Help & Support --> Search for SAP Notes. Provide the SAP Note number. Read the note carefully and do the needful.
Contact your Basis person. He would be able to help you.

Upload partner functions to customer master using LSMW

Dear Friends,
I'm trying to uplaod customer partner functions data through LSMW. I have tried to upload the data using recording method in LSMW(Tr. code: XD02).
As per the business requirement, I need to upload multiple number(For example: 10 records) of SP(Sold to) partners to a single customer.
While executing session, instead of adding all 10 records of partner functions, only the last record(i.e 10th records) is adding in the customer master.
Your response will be highly appraciated.
Regards
Satish

Hi Satish,
You can't use XD02 to upload multiple partner functions by recording the transaction. It will not create multiple entries, always it will replace the existing ones with the new entry. you need to use the standard BI program or Idoc method do the same.
I know the scenarios for the vendors it didnot work in that way for me at that time I used Standard BI method to create the multiple partner associations.

Restrict the creation of customer master records at sales area level

I know that you can supress fields at the company code and sales area level in customer master, but, is there a way in configuration to restrict the creation of a customer master record at the company code and sales area levels? Only the general data level is needed for this customer account group.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi
Create the Customer Master without entering the Company Code and sales Area. The system will allow and ask you to fill only the General Data.
The other way is that Create a Account Group and suppress its all Fields of Accounting View and Sales Area View, so that for that account group you will have to maitain only the General view.
